Let's convert 9 out of 20, as a fraction, into a percent

Percents are numbers out of 100, so let's convert this fraction into an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 100. We can multiply top and bottom by 5

Which gives us 45 out of 100

And 45 out of 100 is 45 percent, so we have our answer.
